Steps to reproduce:

I'm not sure if this is a bug, but I can do this with all other browsers right now (including Firefox)

This is on Windows 10 if that matters.

Actual results:

Error


Expected results:

Navigate to localhost
It would be very helpful if you could list some code you were executing here.

Can you also provide the document that is loaded?  In our automation Marionette loads from http://localhost/ all the time, so I think the bug description here is inaccurate.
Sorry for the confusion; there are 2 commands there.

This works fine:
driver.navigate.to "http://localhost:8180/"

This does not:
driver.navigate.to "localhost:8180/"

W3C doesn't say anything about this, I just wanted to point out that it is different from the behavior of both Chrome & Firefox.

In http://w3c.github.io/webdriver/webdriver-spec.html#go which references https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-url for a URL. We are currently following the spec which all drivers are implementing. 

Since you can't call a normal website without the scheme see below I am a little loathed to add it for localhost as it will lead to issues that people wouldnt understand.
